  • Yeah, the lecturing of cloud models gets old very fast. Out of them glm and deepseek weren’t at all concerned about decompiling software or cracking some soft, but when you even try to touch anything radio related they all start to spew how you can’t do this or that, and if you try to break some ip camera over uart they are fine, but if it’s the same ip camera but over local network they start to sing about it being illegal. Other cloud models don’t even try.


  • I’ve played around with normal qwen 3.8 recsntly with my homebrew setting which is thematically pretty dark and it never refused anything outright but always tried to move the story into brighter and happier one. In contrast gpt-oss was into doom and death and tried to kill every character I’ve met for some reason.

    Might be a fun idea to try with decensored models.







  • Your point goes counter everyday carry idea in my opinion. (generally usable everyday items for a specific person, that require minimum space)

    You can’t make a situational thing ready beforehand, unless you are exceptionally organized and can think of everything beforehand. It doesn’t make sense to take a raincoat for a sunny day walk, but for a day with clouds it makes sense, it makes sense to take a 3l camelback on a hot summer day, not so much in autumn. Same with expirables. That’s what I mean by the word maintenance. Expenses - some things needed in multiple situations, so you either buy multiple and put it into multiple leather bags, or you take them out, or you make another bag with multiuse items and lug it as well.

    It might be perfect for you, just pointing out that there are obvious inconveniences to this approach.

    I don’t know any local ateliers (not that there are any left), I’m not sure how is it pronounced in english, it pronounced similarly to original french word in my language.

    P.S. Not to be negative your idea of modular leather packs that mounted on other things would probably look very good and leathercrafting in general is a great hobby.

    They can be useful, but you won’tbe able to buy heart of this hardware offline with cash, mentioned lidars for example. Also it needs to be big-ish, while training or recreational drones barely bigger than tiny whoop with small battery and <50 grams of explosive and some shrapnel can do the trick. They can be printed or made locally from sheets, motors are common, with correctly configured PIDs and other parameters they can be not very loud, flight controllers cost almost nothing and can be found locally, etc., etc.

    They don’t advertise anything about rescue of anyone in the post, obvious use case is marathons and other sports.

    For military uses it’s semi useless. Lidars are expensive, can be easily seen by intended targets. Actual combat single use drones are flying without any gps most of the time, you can easily achieve last meters where you can’t see or control a drone with raspberry pi and a camera (easy, cheap, requires little expertise, triggered by switch on a radio).
